Well worth it and great time

Friendly professionals that help the beginner feel comfortable and give the old timer a refresher. Jesus was excellent in instruction of materials and execution of the dive plan. Safety was a very high priority. Highly recommend, whether you're a novice or just need a refresher.

Awesome Experience!

Karla and Jimmy were awesome! They were very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. We got to see incredible marine life such as pufferfish, sting rays, lobsters, angel fish, and even a shark! Karla was very patient with our son, who was hesitant to scuba dive, and she was very helpful and responsive with my husband when he had a minor incident. We would highly recommend this tour!

Scuba fun

Jesus, Polo and Eduardo were amazing. They took my family of 6 out for the beginner dive. Three of us had been diving or were certified and three not at all. They catered to us all. Jesus was the best with all levels and Polo stuck with me who knew nothing! Seriously a great time.

Highlight of the week

We booked with Manta for the discover scuba tour with a second dive. Our instructor Kosta was great, very knowledgeable and funny. After an equipment issue and a brief class we got the boat. My wife, son, and I were the only people on the class. When we got on the boat we were joined by another instructor, Chui, and Captain Flash. Turns out scuba is harder than I thought but our son took eight to it. My wife and I took a little longer but Kosta got us under the water in no time. The second dive site had a ton of sea life and well worth it. It was the highlight of our trip and I will book with Manta again.

Operator response

We're so happy to hear you had such a memorable family experience! We're glad you enjoyed the dives and all the marine life so much. Thank you for trusting us and for letting us be part of such a special moment. We hope to welcome you back again soon!

First try

Costas, our guide, gave clear and easy to understand instructions. We went at a pace we were comfortable with. Amazing close up look at various fish. Might be a little challenging if you have trouble with ears/sinuses equalizing pressure. Otherwise, Highly Recommend!
